"Really enjoyed it!" 17 days ago by LeLeSQ

We ate there in March 2015 and had a great experience. Our food was delicious (ordered the carne asada), atmosphere was cool, and waitstaff very friendly. We had family ranging in age from 8 to 70 and no complaints. Would eat there again!

"Fun and Exciting" 2 years ago by drumbum67

I love this restaurant. I don't even like Mexican food, but I love this restaurant. The atmosphere is one of the liveliest in WDW, and the food is authentic (a little USA-ized). The tables, however, are very crowded. So if you aren't a people person, you may want to sit this one out. Service is friendly, but not exceptional.
Overall, the atmosphere steals the show. Food is good, but service could use a boost.

"Atmosphere!" 3 years ago by bethymouse

We were not able to get a table close to the boat ride. It was too dark for my Mom to read the menu. We did not have good service. We had to ask for our chips and salsa. The restaurant is very crowded! The food, however was delicious!

"Small portions, but very tasty." 4 years ago by zacopeland18

Aside from the fact that the tables are waaaaaaaay to close to each other and the portions are very small for the expensive price that you pay, I can't complain about the food. Everything my wife and I had was excellent! I just wish there was a little more bang for your many bucks that you will spend there.

More Information

San Angel Inn Restaurant is one of the most beautiful and atmospheric of all Epcot's restaurants. Set inside the pyramid at the Mexico Pavilion, this table service restaurant offers "outdoor" dining - inside. Tables overlook scenes from 'The Gran Fiesta Tour" boat ride.

Unlike most Mexican restaurants in the United States, you’ll not find nachos at San Angel Inn in Epcot, because, says manager Richard Debler, they are not authentic Mexican dishes. And Debler was trained in his family’s restaurant in Mexico City.

Chocolate may sound like an unorthodox ingredient to use with chicken, but the mole poblano prepared according to a San Angel Inn recipe combines chile ancho, chile passilla, green tomatoes, ground tortillas, coriander seed and 11 other spices with cocoa for a rich sauce in which chicken is simmered until tender. Fresh tortillas are made every day and filled with duck marinated with tamarind sauce and topped with avocado, pineapple and chives.
